I Know what you mean Fenris, I couldn't decide on anyone one faction so have ended getting three as well, but the fluff,models and rules for all the factions just beg for buying them all! Its figures like these which are just lovely.

"So you want to save Prince Albert and decide the fate of hong kong, by playing a game of cricket agaisnt Fu-man-chu?....hand me another beer and i will see what i can do"

Seriously, yes, the sculpts are getting better and we are investing more money on the painting too. Additionally we are also getting them enhanced a little with photoshop (which is what most miniatures manufacturers do).

Previously we had no time or money for photoshopping and we preferred to invest the resources in sculpting not painting so that we could get the miniatures released faster.

As you probably know there were a lot of comments about the mediocre paint-jobs. I must have heard 100 times at conventions "Wow, the minis look so much better in reality than on the Website".
